10/10 Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez, a global icon known for her singing and acting, ranks as the 10th most disliked a-lister on Ranker. Despite her successful career in music and films like “Maid in Manhattan,” some critics cite her limited acting range.
9/10 Taylor Lautner
Taylor Lautner, famed for his role as Jacob in the Twilight saga, is ranked 9th among the “worst” a-list actors. Despite his Twilight success, he struggled to break free from typecasting as a heartthrob. Additionally, his role as Sharkboy didn’t see a return in its Netflix sequel.
8/10 Kristen Stewart
Kristen Stewart, known for her role as Bella Swan in Twilight, follows at the 8th spot. Despite her fame, her performances are criticized for a perceived lack of emotion and discomfort on screen. These factors have overshadowed her acting career, according to voters.
7/10 Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus, renowned for her roles in Hannah Montana and Black Mirror, ranks 7th. While celebrated for her singing and acting, controversies in her personal life sometimes overshadow her performances. Despite her household name status, some viewers find it hard to separate her off-screen persona from her on-screen characters.
6/10 Madonna
Madonna, primarily celebrated for her singing, has dabbled in acting but often receives negative feedback for her performances. Critics note that her acting roles sometimes blur with her personal persona, hindering the immersion of viewers in her characters.
5/10 Lena Dunham
Lena Dunham, known for her role in “Girls,” ranks at number 5 on the list. Criticisms of her acting stem from the characters she portrays, which may polarize viewers. Additionally, her unique voice and personality, central to her acting style, may not resonate with all audiences.
4/10 Amy Schumer
Comedian Amy Schumer takes the fourth spot, known for films like “Trainwreck” and “I Feel Pretty,” alongside her stand-up comedy. Criticism often centers on her comedy’s overtly sexual nature, which divides audiences. Similarly, her acting roles, reflecting her comedic style, evoke mixed reactions from viewers.
3/10 James Corden

Recently, he has focused more on his music, contributing tracks to projects like the “Spider-Man: Miles Morales” video game.
